hey guys. i was wondering if the 97-01 prelude side mirrors will fit my car. i tried a 2000 integra side mirror but it doesnt fit. i just want the look of a type r power folding mirrors but not the real deal because they are too expensive. any suggestions on which side mirrors would be great, if any. thx in advance

Probably not. I've never seen any knock off power folding mirrors. If you want to have them, you'll need to bite the bullet and get the real thing.

Sometimes you can get a good deal on here and find em for ~$200.

But look at spending $250

But for that price I'd rather have some dope *** Vision mirrors.

Seriously. And not to mention, Visions are SOOO much easier to install. Don't have to worry about wiring up anything.

Okay what is it with everyone and folding mirrors? Honestly. If you don't have tight spaces where you actually need to fold your mirrors down, why get them? No matter how many JDM parts you put on your car, it can and never will be JDM as long as it was manufactured in the U.S.

$260 shipped FTW

Honestly, who cares? To each their own. I have a mix of USDM/JDM/UKDM/aftermarket parts on my car. I like it, I don't care if anyone else does.

Seriously. Everyone whines and complains about the "JDM fad", when in reality...it is just people taking in different options that may or may not have been available for their car from the factory.

Vision mirrors are FUGLY IMHO.

There are knock off folding Civic mirrors. There was a guy on ClubCivic selling a set for $70-80.

Oh, and there are lots of folding mirrors (that don't power fold) sold in Europe too. So you might be able to get a set of those for cheap.

I had a set of CTR mirrors and I really HATED them!! I loved the looks, but the function was pretty much **** since we drive on the opposite side.

Not all power folding mirrors for 6th gen Civics are made for RHD cars.

So...which country got LHD CTRs? or LHD P/F mirrors? Cause I'd be interested in a set that's made for LHD.

I'd recommend looking in Europe. I'm not sure of all the countries that have LHD vehicles there. The Wikipedia article on RHD is actually about what side of the road cars drive on (not the side people sit on), but it shows all of Europe save for the United Kingdom and Ireland drive on the right. Countries that drive on the right generally have cars that seat the driver on the left.

So check into parts from Europe (but not the UK or Ireland). I've seen lots of cars over there which are LHD, but I can't tell for sure which country they're all from.

Remember they won't be Civic Type Rs though. But Civic Type Rs aren't the only cars with those mirrors.

England and france I think are the only ones with RHD. ]

At least the only ones I can think of.
